It is probably worth noting that the Red Cross already distributes medical aid within Venezuela and warned the US government against an aid scheme that does not collaborate with de facto authorities.

And in the last week, the Red Cross has doubled its budget for Venezuela, so whatever you think of Maduro, he certainly doesn't block aid *in general* just the current scheme tied to Washington's recognition of Guaidó.https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-venezuela-politics-redcross/international-red-cross-steps-up-aid-operations-in-venezuela-idUKKCN1PV1WC …

Maybe I should add I have personally sent aid to Venezuela, a few of my friends there have (tragically) asked for help caring for their families. I just sent cash. For what it's worth, these friends have had enough of Maduro. I just want us to be honest about what's happening.
